Retiring Guy's Digest: USA box office for the second weekend in March (2017-2023)

The USA box office on the second weekend of March 2023 is up 14% compared to last year when "The Batman" was the top-grossing movie.

And it's down 47% compared to the 2019 peak when "Captain Marvel" was the top-grossing movie.

The initial haul for “Scream VI” is frighteningly strong for the sixth installment in a franchise. Not only did it greatly improve upon the start of last year’s hit reboot “Scream,” which scored with $30 million, but it crushed the series’ opening weekend record, previously set by 2000’s “Scream 3” with $34 million. “Scream VI” cost $35 million, so it’ll easily turn a profit in its theatrical run.
